Social Matters & Immigration

I believe all individuals regardless of their gender, race,
religion, age, sexual orientation have a right to be represented, respected,
recognized, and be welcomed and safe in our city. I have a long history in support of social justice. I am a member of a DACA/ Immigration
collaborative in Watsonville that has organized and provided informational
workshops for the community. I was one of six women who organized the 2017 Santa
Cruz County Women’s March and later lead a SCWM financial campaign to support
DACA and Dreamers. I organized a rally in Watsonville prior to the march and
later that year, the International Women’s Day in Watsonville. I am a strong
supporter of LGBTQI rights and a newly formed group of young Latinxs to bring
more awareness to issues faced by womxn in our community.

My Commitment:

To support the prohibition of the use of City resources to support the enforcement of civil immigration laws and laws that penalize a person’s presence, entry, or reentry into the U.S.

Advocate for our Dreamers and DACA students' rights.

I will continue to stand with and support our LGBTQI community.

Collaboration with the community, and its agencies to build a safe, and welcoming city.

Be accessible and open, and include my constituents in the discussion.
